A Woodgate man has been arrested for burglary.

The Oneida County Sheriff’s Office says 34-year-old Michael Odonnell of Woodgate allegedly entered a home on White Lake at about 1:30 AM  on July 3, while the homeowners were asleep inside.

Deputies say Odonnell removed several items from the residence, but his image was captured by the video security camera at the home and he was later identified.

Odonnell was charged with second-degree burglary, a felony.

Odonnell was arraigned in CAP Court, where he was released on his own recognizance, and is scheduled to appear in Forestport Town Court on August 2.

An order of protection was issued by the court for Odonnell to stay away from the victim and his residence.
